Looking for classic motorcycle insurance?

Whatever your reasons for owning a vintage or classic bike, you're an enthusiast that knows your push rods from your bevel drives and are dedicated to a biking life of tinkering, polishing and taking part in biking events – for you the joy of ownership runs much deeper that just riding it.

Classic bikes are something special. That’s why our tailored insurance packages are 5 star Defaqto rated and come with 16 common modifications covered as standard. Whether you are looking to insure your modern classic bike or your vintage bike we will search our panel of insurers to find you our best price for the cover you need.

At Bennetts we’ve been trusted by riders for over 85 years, we understand classic bike owners and that’s why our insurance for your classic bike is designed with you in mind.

Our insurance for your classic bike includes the following features:

Optional agreed value

It is essential to make sure your pride and joy is insured at the correct value. We offer agreed value on both modern classic and vintage bikes.

We know that sometimes one bike is just not enough and while you own a classic bike, you might also love modern machines. By combining your classic and modern bikes on one multi-bike policy, you’ll get the cover you need with less of the admin.

Salvage retention options available

Our policy allows you the opportunity to buy your bike back and salvage parts if the worst was to happen and your bikes’ written off.

Salvage retention rights are subject to terms and conditions

NO ADMIN FEE for additional bike modifications

We understand you want to tinker, customise and modify your bike – so we won’t charge you any admin fees for doing this. If the modifications fall under our 16 common modifications we cover as standard, you don’t even need to tell us.

Although we won’t charge any fees, the modification may result in an increase in your premium.

When does a motorcycle become a classic?

Vintage, Classic or even Definitive. There is no real definition of the word classic in relation to motorbikes. Bennetts covers a large number of biking brands and types of bikes. Triumph, Norton, Vincent or Royal Enfield are just some of the vintage brands we cover, whilst ex-military, older racing models and vintage bikes are also applicable to the classic insurance product. Your bike has an intrinsic value, excels in design excellence, styling and individualism and your low mileage goes hand in hand with carefully garaging it.
